It is important to always disconnect negative battery terminal before doing any electrical work (safety issue since airbag can go off and as you found out, fuses can blow). Anyway, the fuse box is usually located near or above the hood latch lever on front driver's side dashboard console. Sometimes on the left side in front of door panel. A plastic square or rectangular shape plastic door covers it. Remove the door for access. There should be a diagram on the backside of door panel showing what fuse does what. They generally pull straight out. You can also simply check them all removing ONE at a time and look for a break in the middle or burnt spot, replace it back to its socket and move to the next one. When you find the bad one, replace it with one of same amp number (stamped on fuse end). Finally, remember to hook the neg. battery terminal back up when done.
Odd that your vehicle runs both systems on the same circuit and with only a 10 amp fuse. I'd try a 20 amp fuse to see if that works. Worth a shot, it shouldn't harm anything.
Under the hood in the big black box look for burned out one . You can replace that fuse with one that lights up when it goes out and it will be easier to find. If you have other lights or dash lights doing strange things it is usually the body computer
I just had to replace both bulbs in mine. The overhead bulb "connectors" can overheat and then contact isn't made. Replaced bulbs and problem is fixed.
Check for a blown use at the auto's fuse box. Take care that there may be more than one location with fuses. If you call the dealer, most likely they can tell you right away where the fuse is located.
In many cars they are using electronic modules to control the lighting and etc. If this is the case with your model of car, it is possible that the electronic control module may have to be changed.
